David Hartwell is in the house

Or, at least, he was until yesterday morning. Dave, who is a senior editor at Tor Books, comes to Toronto every December to speak at the sales conference for H.B. Fenn and Company, Tor's Canadian distributor.

He stayed over Monday night at our place and we threw a reception in his honour -- and also in honour of the fact that it was Hugo Award-winning author Robert Charles Wilson's birthday.
